Introduction

This Greek Feta Dip is a creamy, tangy delight perfect for any gathering or snack time. Loaded with fresh herbs and bright lemon, it pairs beautifully with crunchy pita chips or fresh veggies.

A white bowl is filled with a thick layer of creamy white spread, swirled with a smooth texture and drizzled with golden olive oil on top. On the surface of the spread, bright red cherry tomato halves and fresh light green cucumber chunks are scattered, fresh green herb leaves add small but distinct pops of color. Tiny red chili flakes are sprinkled delicately across the spread, creating a slight contrast. The bowl sits on a white marbled texture, with pieces of toasted pita bread in the corners, the bread is light brown and slightly crispy. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

12 oz. feta
1 cup Greek yogurt

1 (8-oz.) block cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling

1 lemon, juiced and zested
Kosher salt, to taste

2 tablespoons freshly chopped dill, plus more for garnish
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup chopped cucumber

1/2 cup quartered cherry tomatoes
Whole grain pita chips, for serving

Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, use a handheld mixer on medium-high speed to beat together the feta, Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, olive oil, lemon zest, and lemon juice until the mixture is fluffy and well combined. Season with kosher salt to taste.

Step 2: Stir in the freshly chopped dill and crushed red pepper flakes until evenly distributed.
Step 3: Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and top with chopped cucumber, quartered cherry tomatoes, additional dill, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Step 4: Serve immediately alongside whole grain pita chips.

Tips & Variations

For a smoother texture, blend the ingredients in a food processor instead of using a handheld mixer.
Add a clove of minced garlic for extra flavor.
Use fresh mint or oregano instead of dill for a different herb accent.

This dip can also be spread on toasted baguette slices for a tasty appetizer.

Storage

Store any leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Before serving again, give it a good stir and let it sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes to soften. Drizzle a little olive oil on top to freshen it up.

How to Serve

A square cracker with a golden light brown color and slightly rough texture is topped with a thick layer of creamy white cheese mixed with small green herb pieces. On top of the cheese, there are two small tomato pieces—one green and one red—with smooth, juicy textures. A drizzle of yellow olive oil shines over the cheese and cracker, while some coarse salt crystals are scattered on the cracker. The cracker is placed on a surface with a white marbled texture. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7
